I went to a karaoke club last weekend and tried my hand at singing a few songs in Japanese, and now I am hooked. As this particular club does not offer "box"-style karaoke, I'd like to practice new songs a bit before each visit. While finding karaoke songs in English is pretty easy for me, finding them in Japanese is not. Could anyone point me in the right direction? I'm guessing that there are forums and blog sites out there (in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) that have these sorts of things, but I haven't had much luck finding them. Places I've had some success with include redkaraoke (Jp) and youtube.

Using fan-created midi files for practicing Japanese should fall under "Fair Use" I think, but if this request seems to violate forum guidelines, I'll delete it. Thanks

Thanks though. It is a great site nonetheless. I'm just hoping that I can find files that can be run on a netbook while offline (so I can practice the songs in privacy until I can sing them decently.) Maybe I can just grab some midi streams from that site.

This is not exactly what you're looking for, but check it anyway. It could be even much better than what you're looking for.
